    With the year coming to an end we have had some cracking fights and a fair few stinkers...Soooooooo,what is YOUR fight of the year?
    there are no right or wrong answers here and we may get the chance to catch up on some fights we may not have seen...

    I am all for the sweet science of boxing but the Roman v Salido fight from the other night was absolutely unreal,a genuine phone box fight...

    Joshua vs klitschko

    lived up to the hype, lots of drama, klitschko looked done then Joshua looked done

    it had everything you want in a heavyweight world title fight

    I loved it!

    Surprised people said AJ Wlad. Didn’t think it would be a popular choice on here due to the AJ hate.

    I thought the Smith Williams fight too earlier in the year was fantastic. An all out war.

    Degale-Jack, Haye-Bellew, Brook-Spence, Nielson-Ryder, Hammer-Price, Degale-Truax, Frampton-Santa Cruz, Linares-Campbell, Groves-Chudinov, Davies-Taylor, AJ-Klitschko, Eubank Jn-Abraham, Smith-Williams...

    Maybe not fights of the year, but I found them entertaining.

    I really enjoyed Cox v Groves, didn't last long but it was a war for the few rounds it lasted

    That was the biggest disappointment of the year for me.

    Beforehand I thought it could be a genuine 50-50 but it was just a one way pasting whilst it lasted.

    Wlad-Aj, Jack-DeGale, Breazeale-Ugonoh, GGG-Canelo (sans the ending), Salido-Roman, Conlan-Cardoza, Taylor-OD (I was there so to see them TOWIE idiots and their mate take an L was godly)

    I'm sure there are others too

    Conor Benn vs the french lad is the best 6 rounder i've ever seen. Mental fight

    Best fight - Joshua-Klitschko definitely

    Lebedev-Gassiev, Linares-Campbell, Golovkin-Alvarez, Haye-Bellew were very good too.

    Best performances ( too one sided for FOTY) - Josh Taylor- Davies, Saunders-Lemieux, Usyk-Huck
